    In this paper the author establishes an analogue for Schottky groups of a theorem of \textit{S. Kawai} [Math. Ann. 305, No. 1, 101-182 (1996; Zbl 0848.30026)] which establishes the identity of the natural symplectic structure on the Teichmüller space of a surface and the pullback, by the Bers map, of a natural symplectic form on the smooth locus of the space of representations of the fundamental group of the surface in PSL(2,\(\mathbb{C}\)). In the case considered in the paper the author considers the space of Schottky representations. The techniques are directly based on those of Kawai.
